2 Kings 5: 1 ~ Are we willing to do it God’s way?

Naaman the leper made three common mistakes; 1. He tried to buy his healing 2 Kings 5:5 2. He turned to non-believers for answers vs. 6 3. He had preconceived expectations how God would answer him.

Here’s what we can learn…

a. Until we are willing to acknowledge our need, God can’t meet it.
b. God used a servant girl to tell Naaman the truth.
c. We have to exhaust all our resources before we are ready to tap into Gods.
d. Finally God says my thoughts are not your thoughts, His ways are not your ways ~ Is. 55:8

Therefore, it means doing what He says (and nobody else), if you want the answer. Only when Naaman was willing to do it God’s way,  was he healed of leprosy. So the question is, are we willing to do it God’s way?
